GLOBAL MONSTER PROJECT

Along with 2R and 2BP, we're joining with 37 other classes from around the world to take part in the GLOBAL MONSTER PROJECT.


Each of the classes participating chose a body part or accessory and came up with 8-12 words to describe that part. Along with our buddy Yr 2 classes, we chose the ears. We imagined what  a monster's ears might look like and after brainstorming, this was our description-
    Right ear - thorny, twisted, curly, long, dragging on the ground
     Left ear- hairy, scabby, sunburnt, elf like

You can see the descriptions that all the other classes contributed in the table on the MONSTER 2010 home page.

Our task now is to use the descriptions to build a monster by October 29. We know that each class will interpret the descriptions differently. We can't wait to see what all the monsters will look like.

Building this monster is going to be a HUGE task and will require a LOT of teamwork...but will be heaps of fun!

Have you taken part in the Monster Project before?

Do you have any tips for us as to how we should go about building our monster?

Do you have any suggestions as to the materials we could use the create each part?

TOOTH FAIRY DESCRIPTION

We are taking part in the Tooth Tally Project.

One of our first tasks is to draw a picture of the Tooth Fairy.
We can't draw whatever we imagine the Tooth Fairy to look like.
We are basing our drawing on a description that we have been given. All the children in the 250 classes taking part in the project have been given the same description.

We used Bubbl.us, a mindmapping tool, to help organise the information we have about the Tooth Fairy.
Click and drag the Bubbl.us around to see all of the mindmap.

This is what each of us will have in common with our drawings but will each drawing look the same?

What do you picture the Tooth Fairy looking like?
